The Royal Federation of Changjo is a gargantuan, genial nation, ruled by His Royal Highness King Tarjei I with an iron fist, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, cheerful population of 28.893 billion Changjoans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Fjellstad. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Changjoan economy, worth a remarkable 5,936 trillion Kroner a year, is highly specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 205,480 Kroner, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

No personal detail is too tiny for the suede-denim census police, yawning is a sure sign of unemployment, prosecutors accuse General Tso of monopolizing the lunch market, and lobotomies haven't been the same after the practice was severed. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Changjo's national animal is the Red Deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Changjo is ranked 3,872^nd in the world and 162^nd in The North Pacific for Largest Welfare Programs, scoring 7,135.35 on the Safety Net Mesh Density Rating.
